dropping a lot of preload off of front king coilovers

I just got rid of the 40 x15.50's that were on my rig when I purchased it. I went with 38x13.50's and I lowered the preload to 1-3/8" inch on drivers side and 1-5/8" on passenger side to help with the JK "lean". I had about 3.5" of preload before, I know, it was bad. 250/300 coils on front. Steering wheel is still straight, but will I need to adjust the track bar or any of the lower or upper arm bars? The guy that owned it before had 37's before the 40's and Im curious which tire was on it when it was aligned. It seems to drive fine and straight, but was wondering if there was some simple measurements I could do to see if it was out or close. Also, what is the measurement for the spring stops from the sliders?

Thanks for the help guys

I think Im around 1.5 degrees on top of balljoint carrier and close to the same on the front diff. Anyone know what I should shoot for?
